在《千皮兽》中,国王向将死的妻子保证,他只有在未来的新娘和她一样漂亮时才会再娶。然而,世界上只有他的女儿和自己的妻子一样美丽。国王的女儿逃到荒野,才免遭父亲的魔爪。在收集故事素材时,格林兄弟还听到过有关乱伦父亲的其它版本——《没有手的女孩》。然而,在所有的版本中,格林兄弟都重塑了这个父亲的恶魔形象。
Wicked mothers 邪恶的母亲
Evil stepparents are a dime a dozen in fairy tales, but the Grimms originally included some evil biological mothers as well. In the 1812 version of "Hansel and Gretel," a wife persuades her husband to abandon their children in the woods because they don't have enough food to feed them. Snow White also has an evil mother, who at first wishes for and then become infuriated by her daughter's beauty. The Grimms turned both of these characters into stepmothers in subsequent editions, and mothers have essentially remained off the hook ever since in the retelling of these stories.
童话故事里继父继母是常客,但在原版的格林童话中,也有不少恶毒的亲生母亲。在1812年版本的《奇幻森林历险记》中,因为没有足够的食物,一个妻子说服丈夫在丛林中抛弃了他们的孩子。白雪公主的生母也很邪恶,她起先希望女儿貌美,之后又因为女儿的貌美而倍感愤怒。格林兄弟在此后的版本中,把这些邪恶的生母都变成了继母,而亲生母亲在后来的版本中都摆脱了邪恶的头衔。
